With a range of LED light solutions, these barriers are also suitable for locations where high visibility is desirable as a deterrent or to mark an entrance.

L1000 - Heavy Duty Electric Arm Barrier

This electrically operated barrier is the workhorse of the BGI range and is designed for extra heavy duty operation. Exceptionally reliable, this barrier has a reinforced aluminium arm of up to 6m and opening time can be adjusted to between 4 and 6 seconds.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 6m

L1050 - Electric Arm Barrier

The L1050 is a light barrier with an elegant, modern design and built in lights in the post. Electrically operated, with a reinforced aluminum arm of up to 5m, this barrier has an adjustable opening time of between 4 and 5 seconds.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 5m

L1080 - Electric Folding Arm Barrier

This light arm barrier is designed for locations where there is limited clearance and no room for the arm to open vertically. With its unique folding mechanism, this arm can close lanes of up to 5 meters wide with the arm design customized according to the specific site conditions.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 5m

L1090 - Electric Double Arm Barrier

The L1090 barrier is an electric barrier with a reinforced double arm barrier to provide extra strength. Elegant and simple, the dual arms of this barrier result in a particularly well balanced and reliable barrier.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 4.5m

L2000 - Pneumatic Arm Barrier

This pneumatically operated arm barrier is suitable for locations with very high volumes of traffic and can be adjusted to open in as little as 0.8 seconds. The pneumatic mechanism results in low maintenance and also allows for a number of operation cycles after a power cut due to the reservoir of compressed air.

Operation: Pneumatic Max Length: 5m

L3000 - Light Arm Barrier

This is the electrically operated version of the L2000 arm barrier and suitable for all locations where an elegant reliable solution to lane closure is required with opening speeds of as little as 1.5 seconds. When combined with anti-ramming bollards, this combination provides a formidable solution to entrance protection.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 5m

L4000 - Security Cable Arm Barrier

This electrically operated barrier is fitted with a cable to bring small vehicles or motorcycles to a halt. If hit, the arm will break but the cable will aborb the impact. This barrier is often combined with high security bollards to complement their anti-vehicle ramming protection and ensure that both heavy vehicles and motorcycles threats are mitigated.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 4m

L4080 - Extra Long Arm Barrier

Where wider spans are required, the L4080 barrier can be used to close a lane of up to 11m. The extra heavy duty electric motor can operate arms of these lengths reliablly and in many cases, a drop skirt is added to gates like this to improve visibitility.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 11m

BGI506 - Light Boom Barrier

Our BGI506 light arm barrier is used to effectively regulate vehicular traffic. BGI506 ligth arm barrier provide high performances and safety, making them ideal parking lots, toll plazas, or any roadway entry where medium to heavy traffic is expected. Our boom barriers are easy to operate through push button/remote control systems/magnetic loop detectors/ RFID system, etc. In case of power failure, it is easy to disengage the mechanism and manually operate the system.

Operation: Electric Max Length: 5m

Mechanisms

Pneumatic Operation

With its unique pneumatic system, the L2000 arm barrier system provides a solution to very high volume traffic flows with up to 5000 cycles a day sustained 24/7. Opening times are fully adjustable and even at as little as 0.8 seconds at sustained operation, the pneumatic operation ensures very low maintenance since the air pressure ensures minimal wear on the system components.With no gears to jam or motors to burn out, the simple piston mechanism is rated at 10 million operations between gasket replacements. In the event of loss of power, the air reservoir allows continued operation of between 5 and 10 cycles.

Electric Operation

The L-series electrically operated arm barriers are installed at thousands of entrance ways and provides reliable solutions to many traffic control and barrier challenges. With an innovative mechanism to hold the strengthened arm from both sides, and a special release mechanism in case of loss of power, this barrier is designed for high volume. The powerful 0.5 HP motor will quietly and efficiently operate the barrier in attended or unattended locations and the controller can be integrated with a variety of access control options.
